The Parable of The Richman And Lazarus

THE PARABLE OF THE RICH MAN & LAZARUS

Bible Reference: Luke 16:19-31

Golden Verse :

"If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead." Luke 16:31 Lesson Aim: 1. Caring for the poor
2. Wealth or poverty by themselves don't lead to the Kingdom of God.
3. Do not delay repentance Lesson Notes:

Lazarus means My God, My helper.

The richman represents the Jews who received the wealth of the word of God; Lazarus represents the Gentiles.

Notice that Lazarus was humble, patient, and didn't complain while the richman was proud, didn't care about the poor, and didn't even think about the kingdom of God.
